1993176 pages. Index. Select bibliography. Endnotes. "Tells the story of the recent astonishing discovery of two of the original design books from the workshops of the House of Faberge in St. Petersburg. Within the pages of these record books are countless meticulous watercolor and ind drawings of, it seems, every jewel that was made by the firm from 1909 to 1915. Each design is dated and accompanied by detailed handwritten instructions as to type, number and weight of gemstones, precious metal setting, and color of enameling to be used in carrying out the piece. Hundreds of these invaluable - and incredibly beautiful - drawings are reproduced here for the first time, most in full color, with captions describing the jewel, the materials to be used, and the date of execution. And very often the actual finished jewels are photographed next to the drawings from which they were created." - from dust jacket. 205 illustrations, including 169 plates in full color. Clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear. Very slight lean to spine. An excellent copy. Book

1903Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original newspaper. Folio. (49 x 33 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters) and imprint details in bilingual in Russian and Turkish. 4 p. An early issue of this extremely rare newspaper published in Tbilisi by Mehemmedaga Sahtahtli between 1903 and 1905 as 392 issues in total, published for all Turks and Islamic groups in Russia, which had a significant position in the modernization history of Azerbaijani and Russian Turks and the political and social changes at the end of the 19th and the early 20th centuries for Islamic minorities in Russia. The articles were included in this issue as follows: Tiflis-Musahabe by Mehemmed Bey Kasimbekov, pp. 1-2 (about the Girls' Schools in the Caucasus.; Türkistan'a Seyahat by Tacir Arif, pp. 2-3 [Voyage into Turkestan], Öz Muhbirlerimizden-Uralsk'dan-Men Garra' Gurra'-Tercüman ve Muharriri, pp. 3 [an article criticizing "Sark-i Rus"' publishing policy]; Kirim, Öz Muhbirlerimizden-Kirim'dan-Akmescid'de Darü'l-Muallimîn, pp. 3-4 [about the school for theachers, which was opened in Akmescit (Simferopol) in 1870 and provides education in Russian, the number of students and the education program and the inadequacy of the Muslim education of the same school]; Öz Muhbirlerimizden-Bakû'dan, pp. 4 [about the Muslims of Baku losing their influence from the commercial life of the city]; etc. The first Turkish newspapers titled "Ziya", "Ziya-yi Kafkasiye" and "Keshkul" published in Tbilisi in the 19th century were closed by the Russian authorities. The newspaper "Sark-i Rus", published in 1891, long after the closure of Keskul, became the first Turkish newspaper published in the Caucasus at the beginning of the 20th century. Mehemmedaga Sahtahtli, or Mammad agha Shahtakhtinski (1846-1931), was an Azerbaijani linguist and public figure. In 1902, Shahtakhtinski returned to Caucasus and settled in Tiflis. Here in March 1903, he founded the Azeri-language newspaper Sharg-i Rus ("The Russian Orient") dedicated to the academic enlightenment of the Muslims of the Caucasus. His articles propagated the necessity of Europeanisation, which he saw as the only possible way to a stable and developed future. He sharply criticised Islamic fanaticism, which in his opinion was a major obstacle in the development of Azeri culture and was incompatible with the idea of progress. He also dismissed Pan-Turkism, a popular theory among Turkic-speaking scholars and political activists of the time, and propagated the use of folk Azeri as a literary language, as opposed to the common practice of using Ottoman Turkish. He was among the peacemakers during the bloody Armenian-Tatar massacres of 1905-1907. In 1907, he was elected to the State Duma of the Russian Empire (second convocation). After dissolution of the duma, he worked for Petersburg-based newspaper "Russia", then edited by Pyotr Stolypin. Between 1908 and 1918, Shahtakhtinski lived in various parts of the Middle East, including Anatolia, Iraq and Persia, meanwhile writing articles for "Turkestan Times" (Russian: Turkestanskie Vedomosti). During this time abroad, he worked at the Russian embassy to the Ottoman Empire as translator between 1909 and 1912. In 1919, he returned to then-independent Azerbaijan to give lectures at the newly established Azerbaijan State University. Shahtakhtinski was among the numerous scholars who had followed Mirza Fatali Akhundov in proposing an alphabet reform for Azeri, suggesting to reform the existing Perso-Arabic script. The unsuitability of the Arabic alphabet to Turkic languages in general was in his opinion a major obstacle to the spread of literacy among Azeris. Between 1879 and 1903, Shahtakhtinski designed several model alphabets for Azeri, some of them Roman-based, however none of them was implemented in practice. He attended Congress of the Peoples of the East, acting as an interpreter for Turkish, French, German, Persian and Arabic in 1920. In 1923, Shahtakhtinski as member of a special four-mem
